There are only two games left in the regular season for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and, fortunately, both those contests will be at home.

Tampa Bay had one of the toughest schedules at the beginning of the year, playing five-straight games on the road, which included trips to Los Angeles, New Orleans, London, Tennessee and Seattle.

The Bucs went just 1-4 on that stretch, but they’ve gone 5-1 since returning home in Week 10. At 7-7, they have a chance to finish with their first winning record since 2016 if they can win out. They’ll be put to the test in Week 16 when the Houston Texans come to town. The Texans are looking to clinch a postseason berth still, while the Bucs will look to play spoiler down their top two receivers in Mike Evans and Chris Godwin.

With Tampa Bay Buccaneers Pro Bowl receivers Mike Evans and Chris Godwin not playing, the game plan for the Bucs was that Breshad Perriman would be the number one receiver for the team when the Houston Texans came to Tampa.

Perriman, coming off of a game where he had five catches for 113 yards and three touchdowns in the Bucs' 38-17 win over the Detroit Lions, was not slowed down by the Texans defense either. Perriman saw 12 passes come his direction, and was able to haul in seven of them for 102 yards.
